GPS Demo –
Overview
The Janam XM5 provides integrated GPS functionality engineered to meet the needs of mobile
handheld applications. Fast satellite acquisition and excellent tracking performance is combined to
offer accurate navigation information.
In order to acquire the GPS data, third party navigation software is required. For Demo purposes, the
XM5 has an application from u-blox installed in the Start, Demos Folder, called GPS Demo. For
additional information from u-blox visit http://www.u-blox.com
It may take a few minutes to acquire satellite signals and the best results will be obtained when the
XM5 is positioned outside with a clear and unobstructed view of the sky. When indoors or without a
clear view of the sky, the acquisition time to get a fixed position will take much longer or the GPS
signal may be completely unavailable. GPS performance can also be negatively affected if your
vehicle has thermal glass windows, so position your XM5 where there is a clear view of the sky.
In addition, Janam’s XM5 Series supports Assisted GPS (A-GPS) modes, which significantly increases
the time to acquire a fixed position, also called Time To First Fix (TTFF). Visit http://www.u-blox.com
